I would start by mentioning the terrible and disorganized service we received. The seafood combo was decent size wise. However, the shrimp was overcooked and the Crawfish was definitely not fresh. The food is way too overpriced and the sauces being used are definitely not flavorful as advertised. It seems that this place has no issue serving poor quality food and careless about reviews. Save your money and go somewhere else.

The only thing I will say is that lee the hostess was the best despite a thousand times of smothered spice NO sauce and just seasoning.for (lee) was the only attentive person ! I had to ask multiple times for my drink and fries!!!! Don’t ask for spice if you can’t deliver! Music lit everything else 👎 get better with your spice .. The Garlic noodles were nasty!!! but the waiter never tried to offer anything else. !! never again . !!

Friendly staff, but some disappointing lunch portions. Fries and catfish were dry and po' boy was tiny, with a weirdly crumbly roll.
On the other hand, the shrimp combo was fantastic - especially the collard greens! Nice and garlicky.

Be prepared to have a mess on your hands, but fortunately they give you bibs and gloves. Had the shrimp and the Cajun pasta special and both were amazing. Would definitely recommend if you like flavorful seafood and ridiculously sweet iced tea.

Omg not 1 but 2 rotten potatoes in my crab legs bag. 😵Too pricey for the quantity. Was expecting more flavors and spice.. definitely not good for ordering to go..best of luck to others.

This place was average, the only thing that agitates me was that we were unattended for about ten minutes when we came in, there were no server in the front. The food was okay, shrimp we ordered looks not so fresh. We ordered king crab leg that was so small that looks like a snow crab leg. We didn't even bother taking picture of it since its definitely not a "king" size crab we can pose on Facebook. So I guess minus 1 for the service and minus one for the food. Other than those it was alright

So I went there with a group of friends just left like 5 minutes ago. Let me just start with there was a bug in my drink then when we got the bill they didn’t charge me for the cheaper drink but charged me for the fishbowl (for 2) which doesn’t makes sense because the cheaper drink didn’t have the bug in it. I understand businesses are struggling because of the virus but I shouldn’t have had to pay for the drink that ACTUALLY had the bug in it

This place was so much fun and absolutely delicious. I had the crawfish&shrimp and lobster boils with two different sauces: Cajun and Gulf. Sauces were amazing! I recommend getting fries to dip in. Seafood was fresh and tasty. They give you a bib and gloves and you get messy so be warned and prepared! Attached is a picture of my drink, it was delicious and so cute! (tequila drink) Definitely recommend this place and will go back soon.
